Flyers forward Harry Zolnierczyk has been suspended for 4 games by the NHL’s Department of Player Safety for charging Ottawa defenseman Mike Lundin on Saturday.

Lundin appeared to temporarily lose consciousness on the vicious hit – and Ottawa coach Paul MacLean confirmed after the game that Lundin had suffered a concussion.

“Instead of delivering a hard, legal check, he launches prior to the check, making sigifnicant contact to Lundin’s head,” NHL vice president Brendan Shanahan said in a video explanation. “What no player should expect is that his opponent will launch upward, off the ice and into his head.”
